Han Dynasty Achievements

Chapter 105: Xiongnu Chanyu

Five days later, Taiyuan City.

Lu Zhi stood on the top of the city wall with his hands behind his back. In the distance, the sky was filled with dust and the Hun cavalry were marching around.

Gongsun Zan stood beside him, his face full of wrinkles and murderous intent, and said: "Master, let me go. I don't even care about the Huns!"

Gongsun Zan fought against the Xianbei, Wuhuan and others in Youzhou for many years, winning more battles than losing, and had great military achievements, which made him have strong self-confidence.

A wisp of cold wind blew by, and Lu Zhi's hair fluttered. His tired face was cold and grim. He looked towards the north and said, "This group of Huns is a little unusual."

Gongsun Zan's heart suddenly moved, and he asked, "Master, are you saying that someone is colluding with the Xiongnu?"

This is what Lu Zhi thought. This group of Huns arrived a little early and it was just the summer harvest season. They had an unimpeded journey all the way to Taiyuan City. Although this was due to the internal strife in the Han Dynasty, it was too smooth.

Lu Zhi had a blank expression on his face and asked, "Is there any news about Niu Fu?"

Gongsun Zan said, "Dong Zhuo's letter has been sent, but there is no reply yet."

Lu Zhi's face darkened slightly, his eyes flickered, and he said, "Wait!"

Niu Fu is a key figure now. If he surrenders, the chances of dealing with the Xiongnu will increase greatly. If he sides with the Xiongnu, the situation in Bingzhou will change drastically!

Gongsun Zan suppressed his urge to fight and said, "Master, all the counties have been fortified and the fields have been cleared. The Xiongnu can't plunder anything."

Lu Zhi said nothing, his eyes were fixed towards the north.

Once upon a time, the Han cavalry marched across the grassland, invincible. The Huns did not dare to even stay south of the desert, let alone invade the border. The royal court moved to the depths of the desert, fearing the Han as a tiger.

Now, the Huns have penetrated deep into the Han territory, acting recklessly and without any scruples.

Immediately, he thought of Liu Bian's secret letter, his face became colder and harder, and he said, "Let the soldiers have a good rest, and there will be plenty of wine and meat."

Gongsun Zan's expression brightened, and he said, "I will obey your orders!"

He thought that his teacher could not help it and wanted to fight a great battle with the Huns!

"What's the Black Mountain Army doing?" Lu Zhi asked again.

Gongsun Zan understood and said with a chill in his eyes, "Master, do you suspect that the Black Mountain Army is colluding with the Xiongnu?"

Lu Zhi now doubts everything.

Shangdang County.

Liu Bian stood on the top of the city wall, looking towards the north.

Standing behind him were Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and others, all wearing armor and looking awe-inspiring.

Cao Cao's beard is even more luxuriant, his eyes are narrow and long, and his expression is indifferent, giving people a sense of evil.

He suddenly raised his hand to Liu Bian and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I request your permission to attack and destroy the Xiongnu at the foot of Taiyuan City!"

Liu Bian turned around and looked at him with a normal expression, and thought to himself: You are very brave.

Cao Cao has led the army until now, but he actually has no outstanding military achievements. He has been in office until now basically because of his ancestors' influence. If it were someone else, he would have died eight hundred times.

Cao Cao lowered his head, but he could still feel Liu Bian's gaze, and said more solemnly: "I only need 10,000 men to defeat the Xiongnu and show the power of the Han army!"

Liu Bian wanted to train Cao Cao, but not at this time. He suddenly said to Dong Zhuo, "Dong Qing, Niu Fu hasn't replied yet?"

Dong Zhuo's rough face straightened immediately, and he raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the Huns have blocked the news."

Liu Bian looked at him deeply and said, "Your family still needs to think of a solution."

Dong Zhuo's heart sank, and he quickly said, "I obey your order."

His current situation is very difficult. If Niu Fu really colluded with the Xiongnu, he would surely die! But if Niu Fu surrendered, then Dong Zhuo would be useless and would not be far from death.

"What should I do?"

"Yuan Kui, you old thief!" Whenever Dong Zhuo thought of this, he would grit his teeth in hatred towards Yuan Kui, wishing he could skin him alive.

Cao Cao saw that Liu Bian did not agree to let him go to the battle, and he hesitated to put down his hand. He secretly made up his mind that this time, he must make achievements!

How can a real man live in the world in a muddle-headed way for long?

Liu Bian had no idea what the two were thinking. He looked towards the north, with the flags flying everywhere and his eyes wandering, his heart surging with anxiety.

Cao Cao longed to be the General Who Conquers the Northern Army, and Liu Bian also wanted to be Emperor Wu!

The country is strong and powerful, with many brave generals under his command. He has defeated all the disobedient people and made immortal achievements, which will be remembered for thousands of years!

However, the current situation of the Han Dynasty did not allow Liu Bian to fantasize too far.

He took a deep breath, turned around and walked down the city wall, saying: "Follow my instructions, make arrangements carefully, and don't slack off!"

"We obey your order!" Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Zhang Liao and others responded in unison, watching Liu Bian's back, each with their own thoughts in their minds.

Pan Yin and Zuo Li followed Liu Bian to the backyard of the government office. Zuo Li found an excuse to leave, and only Pan Yin and Zhao Yun stayed with Liu Bian.

Liu Bian had no time to rest as official documents piled up in front of him.

into the night.

Zhang Liao and Cao Cao were patrolling on the city wall. The moon was as cool as water and there was almost no sound from the top of the city wall.

Suddenly, a galloping horse appeared in the darkness, and the sound of its hooves was very crisp in the night.

Cao Cao opened his eyes, walked quickly to the wall and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

The soldiers around were suddenly on alert, and all the archers aimed at the darkness.

"Don't move!" Cao Cao said in a low voice, stopping the archer from preparing to shoot.

Soon, the sound of horse hooves appeared in the dim vision, and there was only one person!

Cao Cao remained expressionless and waited quietly.

The man on the fast horse had his face covered and carried a bow on his back. He came to a nearby distance and suddenly drew the bow and shot an arrow.

huh~

An arrow flew into the city, and the fast horse turned a corner and quickly disappeared into the night.

Seeing this, Cao Cao suddenly turned around and shouted, "Bring the arrows here!"

Soon after he finished speaking, a soldier came to report: "Report to the General, the arrow was taken away by the eunuch."

Cao Cao was startled when he heard this, and then he strode down the city wall and headed straight for the government office.

At this moment, Zuo Li had already taken the note. Looking at the contents on it, he was horrified and ran straight to Liu Bian's dormitory in the backyard.

Liu Bian had just fallen asleep with great difficulty when he was awakened by an urgent knock on the door.

Once he falls asleep and is forcibly awakened, he will have a headache and feel uncomfortable all over, which also makes his temper become very bad.

If he was in the palace, he would have scolded him long ago, but in Shangdang County, Liu Bian frowned and opened the door irritably.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

As soon as the door opened, Zuo Li said anxiously, "The Huns know that Your Majesty is in Shangdang, and they are leading a large army to rush over!"

Liu Bian frowned even more tightly, staring at Zuo Li and asked, "How did you know?"

Zuo Li was extremely panicked and said quickly, "Your Majesty is leading the army in person. I dare not be careless. I have arranged people in various counties in advance to monitor the Xiongnu and exchange information. Your Majesty, will you return to the capital immediately?"

Liu Bian had a splitting headache and felt a little nauseous, but he managed to say, "Well done."

Just as he was about to send Zuo Li away like this, he looked up and saw Cao Cao striding towards him in a hurry.

Liu Bian took a deep breath and said directly: "The Xiongnu are coming to Shangdang, don't worry, just be prepared for defense."

Cao Cao's expression immediately changed in shock. The Huns bypassed Taiyuan and came to Shangdang?

He then asked in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, should we mobilize other places to come to support us?"

Liu Bian looked at the sky and said calmly, "No need, just focus on guarding."

When Cao Cao saw that Liu Bian showed no sign of panic, he opened his eyes and suddenly became terrified, and thought of an extremely terrifying possibility!

Not far away, Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao and others came over. Liu Bian shook his head, sobered up a little, walked out the door, and said to the crowd with a smile: "Aren't they just the Huns? There are only more than 10,000 people. Why are you so panicked?"

Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao and others were even more panicked than Cao Cao, and their faces were full of anxiety.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is here. If the Huns break through Shangdang County, the consequences will be unimaginable!

After listening, Cao Cao understood more clearly. His eyes opened wide, his heart was beating fast, and he stared straight at Liu Bian.

Your Majesty is using himself as bait to lure the Huns to Shangdang!

What great courage and spirit!

Liu Bian remained expressionless and glanced at Cao Cao out of the corner of his eye.

Cao Cao bowed his head sharply, then raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops to fight against the Xiongnu!"

Since Your Majesty can use his own body worth millions of gold to defeat the enemy, Cao Cao can also use his own body to lure the tiger!

Liu Bian smiled and said, "No hurry, there is still some time."

Cao Cao put down his hand, his face gloomy, and he still couldn't calm down.

He never imagined that Liu Bian stayed in Shangdang and did not move forward, actually had such a plan!

This matter must have been planned for a long time, and the person who presided over this battle must be Lu Zhi from Taiyuan City.

'I wonder what arrangements General Lu has made, and whether there are any arrangements made by me, Cao Cao...' Cao Cao's eyes flickered, and he thought with a little peace of mind.

He wants to make a contribution!

At the same time, in a village ten miles outside Hedong County.

The people here had all fled long ago, and now the place is occupied by a group of Huns.

The Huns who entered the Great Wall this time can be called Southern Huns, who came from the south of the desert.

However, there were also many Xiongnu in the Han Dynasty, which can be traced back to the Zuoxian King Xiu Tu tribe who surrendered during the reign of Emperor Wu. They were widely distributed in Wuyuan, Daijun, Shanggu, and Taiyuan.

In recent years, these tribes have fought with the Han army, especially during the Qiang rebellion, and have made many contributions. However, due to the corruption of the imperial court and the emergence of various bad policies, these Xiongnu people surrendered and rebelled from time to time, becoming a major rebellious force in Bingzhou.

This group of Huns outside Hedong also came from the Southern Huns, and their leader was named Yufuluo.

Yufuluo was originally the son of the Chanyu of Southern Xiongnu. Two years ago, he was ordered by the King of Han to join the army to conquer the Xianbei. However, not long after arriving, his father, the Chanyu, was killed in a rebellion, and he had to stay in the territory of Han.

He had made many contributions and should have been rewarded, but Emperor Lingdi passed away at that time. Dong Zhuo led his troops into Hedong and blocked Yu Fuluo's way to the capital. In addition to other complicated reasons, Yu Fuluo was labeled a rebel by the Han court.

Unfortunately, the imperial court was plagued by troubles and unable to put an end to the rebellion. It could only allow Yu Fuluo and the Baibo Army to unite, plunder everywhere, do whatever they wanted, and occupy the Hedong area.

In the darkness, a man walked into Yufuluo's tent.

Yu Furuo had a full beard and messy hair, as if he hadn't taken a bath in many days.

He had an indifferent expression and looked at the person who came with caution.

"Does Chanyu want to live?" The man who came was standing not far away and asked straight to the point.

Yu Furo thrust the dagger in his hand fiercely into the table.

"court death!"

The guards on both sides immediately drew their swords and put them on the neck of the person who came.

Zhong Yao's expression remained calm as he stared straight at Yu Furuo.

Yu Fuluo drew his dagger and said, "Do you think your court can kill me?"

Zhong Yao shook his head with a pitiful look on his face and said, "The Chanyu should know that Xubuguduhou Chanyu came here not only to plunder, but also to kill the Chanyu. Of course, the Chanyu can completely avoid his edge. However, Your Majesty will lead the army in person. No matter whether my dynasty wins or Xubuguduhou wins, the Chanyu will have no place to stand in Bingzhou and his death is not far away."

Yu Furo stood up suddenly, his expression changing, anger and hatred alternating.

After a long while, Yu Fuluo sat back down, stared at Zhong Yao coldly and said, "You Han court has abandoned me. If you want me to work for you, forget it!"

Zhong Yao knew some of the past events and asked, "What if, afterward, I officially anoint you as Chanyu and send troops to help you conquer Xubu Guduhou?"

Yu Fuluo's eyes flashed like lightning, his breathing became rapid, he looked at Zhong Yao and asked, "Are you serious?"

When Xubu Gudu Hou rebelled, Yufuluo asked the Han Dynasty to send troops to help him suppress the rebellion. However, the Han Dynasty was preoccupied with its own affairs and had no time to pay attention to him.

Zhong Yao lowered his eyes and looked at the sword on his neck.

Yu Fuluo hurriedly stood up and came over, waving his hand and saying, "Everyone get out! Zhong Tingwei, please take a seat!"

I am not very good at writing about war, so I will allow the author to sort out the details. The update for tomorrow morning will be put off to the evening.
